The Harpenden Trust is delighted to reveal the new Trust values. These values reflect our beliefs, define our culture and standards and set out what we stand for.
In defining US, we asked ourselves –
What does the Harpenden Trust mean to us?
Our values guide our thinking and our actions, and help us to truly define what is important, beautiful and worthwhile in the work of the Harpenden Trust. Going forward, these values will be embedded even more firmly in everything we do as well as in our organisational processes. We are proud to share them with you over the next few weeks, beginning today with Value 1:
With Care and Kindness
Whether we are supporting a client or working with a fellow volunteer, we are all deserving of each other’s respect and thoughtfulness.
Recently one of our client’s returned home from a lengthy stay in hospital and a residential home. Her befriender helped her to cook a meal, another volunteer cleared overgrown brambles enabling the back door to be opened. Yet another volunteer came to replace a light fitting, found another not working, and replaced that one too.
Care and kindness defines our work at the Harpenden Trust.
